We have audited the Ind AS financial statements of Jayshree Chemicals Limited ("the Company") which comprise the
balance sheet as at 31st March 2024, the statement of Profit and Loss, statement of changes in equity and statement
of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the Ind AS financial statements, including a summary of signifi¬
cant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid Ind AS
financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view
in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at
March 31,2024, and its loss, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the
Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsi¬
bilities for the Audit of the Ind AS financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company
in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the
ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Ind AS financial statements under the provisions of the
Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance
with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the
Ind AS financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Ind
AS financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion
on these matters.
We have determined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report.
Other Matter
We draw attention to note no. 43 where it is mentioned thatThe National Company LawTribunal ("NCLT"), Kolkata
Bench have by its order dated 25/04/2024 approved the Scheme of Amalgamation ("Scheme") of its wholly owned
subsidiaries viz., East Coast Powers Ltd. and Bangur Exim Pvt. Ltd. The Appointed date of the Scheme is 01/04/2023.
Consequently, the previous year figures have been restated considering that the amalgamation has taken place
from the beginning of the preceding period i.e. 01/04/2022 as required under Appendix C of Ind AS 103 ("Business
Combinations").
Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information obtained at the
date of this auditor's report is information included in the Annual report but does not include the financial state¬
ments and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of
assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in
doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our
knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed on the other information obtained prior to the date of this auditor's report,
we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Management's Responsibility for the Ind AS financial statements
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013
("the Act") with respect to the preparation of these Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view of the
financial position, financial performance, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the
accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under section 133
of the Act. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the pro¬
visions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other
irregularities; selection and application of appropriate implementation and maintenance of accounting policies;
making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance
of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness
of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statement that give a true
and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Ind AS financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to con¬
tinue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern
basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no
realistic alternative but to do so.
Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Ind AS financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Ind AS financial statements as a whole are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with
SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the econom¬
ic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Ind AS financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism
throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Ind AS financial statements, whether due to fraud
or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is suffi¬
cient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement re¬
sulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional
omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies act, 2013, we are also responsible
for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place
and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and
related disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based
on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may
cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the Ind
AS financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based
on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may
cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and content of the Ind AS financial statements, including the dis¬
closures, and whether the Ind AS financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a
manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and
timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we
identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical re¬
quirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may
reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of
most significance in the audit of the Ind AS financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit
matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about
the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in
our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public
interest benefits of such communication.
